Allergic Rhinitis and Its Impact on Asthma

TL;DR: This systematic review and meta-analyses confirmed the findings of a previous study published in “Rhinitis and Asthma: Causes and Prevention, 2nd Ed.” (2015) as well as new findings of “Mechanisms of Respiratory Disease and Allergology,” which confirmed the role of EMTs in the development of these diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global initiative for chronic obstructive lung disease.

TL;DR: Representatives from many countries serve as a network for the dissemination and implementation of programs for diagnosis, management, and prevention of COPD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global strategy for asthma management and prevention: GINA executive summary.

TL;DR: It is reasonable to expect that in most patients with asthma, control of the disease can and should be achieved and maintained, and the Global Initiative for Asthma recommends a change in approach to asthma management, with asthma control, rather than asthma severity, being the focus of treatment decisions.

General practice audit of asthma in childhood

M Levy, +1 more
- 27 Oct 1984 - 
TL;DR: It is thought that the doctor's time would be better spent teaching patients about their asthma than by repeatedly treating non-existent respiratory infection.

Safety of 1 year of treatment with budesonide in young children with asthma

TL;DR: It is concluded that a 12-month administration of inhaled budesonide to preschool-age children is safe and efficient and can be useful in the management of severe asthma in this young age group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrated plasma cortisol concentration in children with asthma receiving long‐term inhaled corticosteroids

TL;DR: It is concluded that long‐term therapy, even with relatively conventional doses of inhaled BDP may cause reduction in the normal physiological secretion of cortisol, which may reflect partial suppression of the pituitary—adrenal axis.

Asthma on Tristan da Cunha: looking for the genetic link. The University of Toronto Genetics of Asthma Research Group.

TL;DR: The data confirm previous reports of a high asthma prevalence on Tristan and support the postulate that this prevalence is a result of gene enrichment occurring in isolated populations by virtue of extensive inbreeding and a probable founder effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Four-times-a-day dosing frequency is better than a twice-a-day regimen in subjects requiring a high-dose inhaled steroid, budesonide, to control moderate to severe asthma.

TL;DR: The maximal daily swings in peak expiratory flow rates were slightly greater in the BID group, although this difference was not physiologically significant, and Spirometry, cortisol secretion, and the response after synthetic ACTH injection were not significantly different in either group.
